| Description of the problem | I was driving on a side road (35mph) and the car just "stopped" in traffic! With no warning or indication. It started after 10 minutes of sitting in heavy traffic - i took it to the dealer and they said that there was no oil in it? According to the computer i had 4% life and plenty of oil and i checked it when i was stalled on the road. According to the dealer it's normal for the 2. 4l engine to burn through a quart of oil every 1000 miles? Is that accurate for a brand new car? I don't think so-- this is a dangerous issue. I could be driving down the freeway at 70 and it could just stop and it's happened to others. This needs to be reviewed. |
